Technical FAQs 4

Do I need a 12V or 48V inverter?

Simply put, if you have a 12V system, you need a 12V inverter; a 48V system requires a 48V inverter. Standard Pure Sine Wave inverters simply change DC power to AC power. Inverter Chargers handle this function plus allow you to charge your batteries off shore power or a generator. Renogy’s 3500W Solar Inverter Charger is designed for a 48V system.

How much power does an inverter need?

It’s important to note what this means: In order for an inverter to put out the rated amount of power, it will need to have a power input that exceeds the output. For example, an inverter with a rated output power of 5,000 W and a peak efficiency of 95% requires an input power of 5,263 W to operate at full power.

Can I run 12V DC appliances from a 24V or 48V system?

In order to run 12V DC appliances from a 24V or 48V system, you need a 48V to 12V or 24V to 12V step down converter unless the appliances are variable voltage which is still a bit rare at present – though we predict that more and more will be available in the future – let’s see if we are right!

What are the limitations of a 24V power upgrade?

Limitations The upgrade range from 12V to 24V is limited, and the system scalability is still restricted. For scenarios where the power demand exceeds 3000W, the 24V system is still insufficient. Applicable scenarios Medium scale applications, such as medium-sized RVs or small off grid residences.
